Why wasn't the Dominican Republic affected by the Haiti earthquake?
The Dominican Republic was not as severely affected by the Haiti earthquake because it was further away from the epicenter of the earthquake. The geography and tectonic plate boundaries in the region also played a role in the distribution of seismic activity. Additionally, the Dominican Republic has stronger infrastructure and building codes compared to Haiti, which helped minimize the impact of the earthquake.
Why no s waves are received on the side of the earth opposite the epicenter?
S-waves, or shear waves, cannot travel through liquids, which is why they are not detected on the side of the Earth opposite the earthquake's epicenter. The Earth's outer core is liquid, and when an earthquake occurs, S-waves are blocked by this liquid layer, creating an S-wave shadow zone. As a result, no S-waves are recorded by seismometers located on the far side of the Earth from the earthquake's origin.
What is the wide belt in which no seismic waves are received?
The region is known as a seismic shadow zone, located between 104 and 143 degrees from the epicenter of an earthquake. This area exists due to the core's properties refracting seismic waves away from it, causing minimal wave detection.
